Good day out with Harriers on Sunday; mixed results at home

TRH ran our annual run on the Boolarra-Mirboo North Rail Trail, with 2 distances of 25km and 10km. I have previously enjoyed the 25 km run, last year I did it at a pace of 6.30, av speed 9.0 km/hr. I missed it in 2011 due to surgery and did it in 2010 probably a bit faster. This year I am not doing so well, so I did the 10km for the first time.

What do i need to do to get to sub 20min/5km

Posted by redbackrun in 80/20, 17 May 2013 -

· 94 views

Running sub 4 min/k's for 5k has been a target of mine for a while. Having some injuries since early 2011, the last two years have been pretty average. Only running one marathon in 2012 (Jan) i haven't come close to that distance.

I thought i'd draw my attention to the shorter runs whilst i'm still young enough to post a decent time....

April Training Log

Hi All,

This has been my biggest and best training month ever!

Having booked in with LongArms online coaching has made a big difference. Just having to report back to Sean each week has helped me tie the laces up at times where i might not have if it was just me. Has been a great variety of hills, intervals, fartleks, recoveries and the good old long...

Training not going to plan

Posted by Injured2010 in Injured2010's Blog, 17 April 2013 -

· 95 views

My running isn't going to plan, I have struggled with achilles injury and not hitting my training times. Ideally I would expect to be running sub 16 comfortably over 5k at this point but going to be a struggle to go sub 17 at the moment.

I have ran a few XC this season plus a short distance race but struggled in all of them.

Anyway, I have a race...

Geelong half marathon today. My 3rd Half marathon and worst performance. I learnt many lessons in the lead up to this one...

My knee was playing up after my final long run prior to the race, 2 weeks out so went on to pretty much total rest other than walking in a bid to preserve the knee to run on the day. The theory worked and i did run pain free at...

In Memory of my Dad

Those who knew or met my Dad, or knew me and how much I loved my Dad....would understand how devastated we all are after the tragic accident last week that took my Dad and 3 of his close friends away from us.

It's been a tough week, I have been unable to do much except try and help Mum, Gadfly family, and keep going. I haven't been able to run. ...

Last of the shin splints

Today is a new beginning, as I embark on this new thing called 'being in my 30s'. My unhealthy attitude to weight and food had dogged me pretty much for all of my 20s. It was at the end of April 2003 that I started a fairly restrictive diet. As I cam across difficulties, it unravelled, and set in stone, seemingly was an endless cycle of weight loss...

Marathon Club 32km - Sunday 17th March

This is a tester to see where we are really at with our pace. Plan is to race this one, so we have semi tapered this week which has been great.

A few sleep in's and some amazing runs which including pods of dolphins + seeing lots of people I know have renewed my spark for running. I think this may have been...

Well it's been a while since I've written anything re training of any sort here, fb or twitter. I haven't even really filled my training diary out in much detail of late.
That's because I've been to busy training and making good enough progress that I don't need to write stuff down in too much detail
to monitor small improvements in...

I stopped running when i joined a gym. Well, thats a lie. I stopped running outside when I joined a gym. I ran on the treadmill, but never really had a goal. It was just part of the 'workout'.

Then, due to circumstances, I stopped going to the gym, but i didnt start running again. I got lazy. I did my karate and that was about it. Then karate came...

An ode to the old injury

After the ultra, I had one week off running completely - just swimming, walking and cycling.

Week two I started with some easy runs - 50km in total for the week with some cross training and strength work.

Finally got in to see a sports masseuse and as the days passed after the treatment, I realised my body no longer ached - all except my left hamstring...

On Sunday I completed the 11km Resolution Run in Brisbane. My aim was to run it in 56 minutes and to finish strong. The forecast was for really hot weather (38 degrees) so I wasn’t expecting to make my goal time.

Warming up I felt really sluggish, as though my recent lack of sleep was catching up with me. However, When I started running I felt pretty...

My holidays

Posted by 42junkie in 42junkie's Blog, 06 January 2013 -

I was fully intending to have some non-running time over the Christmas holidays. But I was feeling so good after ending my running year on a positive note that I didn't want to take a break from running. So I have just been doing the runs I feel like, not worrying about the distance or my weekly totals.

Then we went to Bright for a few days and I had...
